Subject: [CR]Gluing leather covers to plastic saddles.

Recently bought a couple of used Avocet women's touring saddles from a list member - this has always been my wife's favorite saddle. On the rougher of the two, the leather has cleaned up nicely with Proofhide, but the leather is separated from the plastic shell in a couple of places. What is the best type of glue for reattaching a leather cover to a plastic saddle like this? Any little tricks of the procedure I should know?
